Insight into an innovative voter card issuance project – May 11, at 2PM

During the SDW conference, Ludovic Simonneau from Evolis will present the voter card project for which thousands of Biometric voter kits were deployed for the enrolment and instant issuance of voter cards on the occasion of the presidential election in Tanzania in 2015.

This project endorsed Evolis’ expertise for secure issuance of official documents anywhere in the world.
